I watched the Brat Pack doc and just read the original article. Is this article why all the preps in my high school were wearing Corona Beach Club and Hard Rock Cafe shirts junior year? Bc that shit came out of nowhere
Visited my old car while picking up my other old car 😂 texted this to my sister who marveled that I’m still in contact with all my old cars but that’s the Mexican-by-marriage difference™️ baby 💫
IDK kind of feels like we should be paying more attention to a prominent conservative think tank saying we're in the midst of a second american revolution that will remain bloodless as long as long as the left lets it be, then whether or not Biden should step down.
Biden officially put out a statement opposing surgeries for trans kids, and only listing “mental health care” as an acceptable intervention (not puberty blockers or HRT)
This election is about “saving democracy” but also we’re stuck with Joe Biden unless he voluntarily steps aside. If I vote for Commander the 1st Dog I’m not taking this “threat to democracy” any less seriously than is modeled by the people who claim our hands are tied: is it an emergency or not?????
Trump is not worse than 1989, the year I came out. I couldn’t believe pride was even legal my first time. We patrolled Montrose on foot after the Broussard bashing & protested the RNC while AIDS patients died. We didn’t get here by being ALLOWED to! Break a law sometime jfc
My wife stole my crocs in 2011 and for our anniversary I used her Amex to buy myself new GLITTER crocs plus the girliest Jibbitz imaginable so they never get stolen again
Today was our 9-year wedding anniversary and we had donuts delivered for breakfast, binged “The Bear” and are eating last night’s leftovers and it is perfect
Lol I just applied for a job making videos…I mean I have made videos in the past and interned at the public access cable station and taught Premiere Elements at the library so it’s not ludicrous for me to apply but I wouldn’t call myself a videographer
Purchased $130 of travel tech accessories for a 2-night casino trip that is still purely hypothetical (trip needs to be imperceptible to my boss, so I needed to convert the 1 iPad we have on a data plan to something closer to a laptop + convert a backseat to an office)
Niblings coming round to ask my wife her secrets to success and she’s like “I worked the same job for 35 years and hoarded cash to the point of not using tollroads and having roommates into my 40s” and they’re like “there must be another way”
1 doctorate: smart enough, persistent, maybe rich
2 doctorates: maybe related fields? Clearly smart and persistent and very likely have some resources and/or very odd preferences
2+ doctorates: this person cannot prioritize and is a danger to themselves but nobody else
Israel invaded Lebanon in 1978. Carter describes what happened next in "The Blood of Abraham": The US notified Israeli Prime Minister Begin we were going to cut off all military aid to Israel & present a resolution condemning it at the UN. Begin immediately said: "It's over."
